Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of refrigeration equipment technology, and specifically relates to a refrigeration system. Background Technology

It achieves powerful cooling through a combination of radiation conduction refrigeration and convection refrigeration.

[0003] However, the internal temperature of refrigeration systems is often high, and (in conventional structures, cooling is achieved using only a condenser) the cooling efficiency is poor. Therefore, it is necessary to design a (novel) refrigeration system (by adding a specially structured cold plate) to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a refrigeration system to solve the issues raised in the background section.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a refrigeration system, comprising a housing, a turbine fan, a condenser, and a cold plate, wherein air inlets are provided on the lower left and right sides of the housing, the turbine fan is disposed at the upper end of the housing interior, the condenser is disposed at the lower end of the housing interior, and the air inlets are used to communicate with the turbine fan through the condenser;

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a refrigeration system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a housing, a turbine fan 2, a condenser 3, and a cold plate 6. Air inlets are provided on the lower left and right sides of the housing. The turbine fan 2 is disposed at the upper end of the housing, and the condenser 3 is disposed at the lower end of the housing. The air inlets are used to communicate with the turbine fan 2 through the condenser 3.

[0020] The cold plate 6 is installed on both the front and rear sides of the housing.

[0021] Specifically, the two sealing plates 13 on the left and right are also used for connecting the motor control terminal and the temperature sensor.

[0022] In this embodiment, starting the turbine fan 2 generates negative pressure within the casing. Air from external spaces or rooms, such as base stations, equipment rooms, and cold storage facilities, enters the lower part of the casing through the air inlet. After being cooled by the condenser 3, it becomes cold air, which is then blown into the external space or room through the air outlet on the turbine fan 2 at the upper part of the casing. Thus, under the negative pressure generated by the turbine fan 2, air from the external space or room enters the casing through the air inlet, is converted into cold air by the condenser 3, and is discharged from the turbine fan 2 into the external space or room. This creates a rapid cooling circulation channel within the refrigeration system, facilitating cold air circulation between the refrigeration system and the external space or room. This allows for rapid circulation of cold air to all corners of the external space or room, achieving rapid cooling.

[0023] The cold plate 6 provides a flow channel advantage, with the flow channel divided into upper and lower channels, each covering the surface of the cold plate 6. The flow channels then converge on the other side and exit the cold plate 6, carrying away the heat. All flow paths within the entire channel have approximately the same distance, resulting in equal resistance and flow velocity across all channels, ensuring uniform heat exchange.

[0024] The cold plate 6 facilitates heat exchange by allowing the refrigerant to flow through channels evenly distributed across its surface. During this heat exchange process, the cold plate 6 assists the condenser 3 in simultaneous heat exchange, comprising internal dynamic heat exchange and external static cooling. Dynamic heat exchange utilizes the negative pressure created by the turbine fan 2 to heat the flowing air. This includes initial heat exchange before the ambient air passes through the condenser 3, and additional heat exchange after passing through the condenser 3 and before being expelled by the turbine fan 2. Static cooling occurs when the cold plate 6 is placed in the external space or room, directly contacting the ambient air for radiative cooling.

[0025] Cold plate 6 can also dehumidify. When cold plate 6, which is much colder than the ambient temperature, is directly exposed to the air, water vapor in the room will condense on the surface of cold plate 6.

[0026] Therefore, on the one hand, the cold plate 6 can cool indoor environments such as base stations, equipment rooms, and cold storage facilities, facilitating rapid cooling of external spaces or room environments. On the other hand, the cold plate 6 can lower the internal temperature of the casing, enhancing cooling efficiency and allowing the air entering the casing to cool down rapidly. This facilitates the formation of cold air circulation within the refrigeration system and the room, enabling rapid circulation of cold air to all corners of the external space or room, thus achieving rapid cooling and facilitating energy conservation. This improves the cooling effect of the refrigeration system, significantly reduces energy costs, and provides a new and highly efficient solution for refrigeration scenarios such as base stations, equipment rooms, and cold storage facilities.

[0027] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the refrigeration system also includes a fan mounting plate 4, which is installed between the upper ends of the housing, and the turbine fan 2 is installed on the fan mounting plate 4.

[0028] In this embodiment, by installing the fan mounting plate 4 inside the housing, installation space can be provided to facilitate the assembly of the turbine fan 2 and ensure the stability of the upper structure of the refrigeration system.

[0029] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the refrigeration system also includes a protective net assembly 5, which is installed on the fan mounting plate 4 and corresponds to the air outlet of the turbine fan 2.

[0030] In this embodiment, if foreign objects enter the turbine fan 2 while it is operating, the fan of the turbine fan 2 can easily be damaged. Secondly, when workers approach the turbine fan 2, the fan can easily injure them. By installing a protective net assembly 5 on the fan mounting plate 4, foreign objects can be prevented from entering, and workers can be prevented from contacting the fan, thereby avoiding fan damage and ensuring worker safety. Furthermore, the protective net assembly 5 can also be used to fix the drive motor, which can be connected to the turbine fan 2 for transmission control of the turbine fan 2's operation.

[0031] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing includes a chassis 11, columns 12, sealing plates 13, and air inlet plates 14. Two columns 12 are installed on the left and right sides of the upper end of the chassis 11. The sealing plates 13 are installed on the upper ends of the two columns 12, and the air inlet plates 14 are installed on the lower ends of the two columns 12. The air inlet plates 14 have air inlets. The front cold plate 6 is connected to the front side of the two columns 12, and the rear cold plate 6 is connected to the rear side of the two columns 12.

[0032] In this embodiment, the column 12 serves as the main frame, and the sealing plate 13 is located at the upper end of the column 12. The shell structure is relatively simple and facilitates rapid production. Secondly, the air inlet plate 14 is located at the lower end of the column 12, so air can only enter the lower end of the shell. The turbine fan 2 is located at the upper end of the shell, which can extend the distance that air travels through the condenser 3 to enter the turbine fan 2, making it easier to convert the air into cold air.

[0033] Secondly, by setting up the chassis 11, condensate can be collected and drained. The water collection tray located on the lower chassis 11 will collect the condensate that slides down and quickly discharge the condensate from the dedicated drain pipe on the 15-degree inclined bottom surface. It can also lower the center of gravity of the refrigeration system and improve the stability of the lower structure of the refrigeration system.

[0034] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the refrigeration system also includes a copper pipe assembly 7, which is disposed between the two cold plates 6 and connected to the condenser 3.

[0035] In this embodiment, the copper pipe assembly 7 is a refrigerant splitter, with the same flow path at the inlet and outlet.

[0036] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
